Pizza created fractions by the students and story problems

Pizza created fractions by the students
Student Story Problem Sample
To make the fractions, two circles of the same size are needed,  One drawn on white foam board with each piece cut, decorated by a student, and placed on  the brown circle (2nd circle) to make a whole pizza. 

Pizza slices were decorated using crayons, markers and construction paper.
When all of the  slices are put together on the brown circle they make a whole pizza 8/8.
Next, we solved word problems determining what fraction of the pizza was eaten and what fraction of the pizza  was left.  Since each student has made a slice of pizza, students can name whose slices were eaten and have them remove their slices from the brown circle.
